**REFLECTIONS** presents an evening with ambient composer Laurel Halo on piano and live electronics in a duo with cellist Leila Bordreuil. We’ll pair their set with an immersive, architecturally-mapped light show at this historic former church, featuring an opening set from Chicago drone artist Matchess.

**LAUREL HALO** is an American composer, producer, musician and DJ, born in Detroit and based in Los Angeles. Drawing from a range of stylistic influence, including Detroit techno, musique concrète, film score and jazz, her music employs a careful blend of pressure, decay and nuanced emotion to explore notions of transmission and impermanence.

Since 2012 she has released a number of albums ranging in genre-fluidity, complexity and scope, including Quarantine (2012, Hyperdub), In Situ (2015, Honest Jon's), Dust (Hyperdub, 2017), Raw Silk Uncut Wood (2018, Latency) and Possessed OST (2020, Vinyl Factory). She has performed in venues, festivals, clubs and institutions across the world, including the Southbank Centre, Sydney Opera House, The Kitchen, CTM/Transmediale, Sónar, and Montreux Jazz Festival, among others. She has collaborated with artists and designers including Moritz von Oswald, Metahaven, Kevin Beasley, Julia Holter, Hanne Lippard, John Cale, Hodge and the London Contemporary Orchestra.

In September 2023 she released her latest album, Atlas, as the debut release on her new record label, Awe.

**MATCHESS** is the solo project of Chicago-based sound artist Whitney Johnson. Playing viola and composing with sine waves, tuning forks, electronics, organ, voice, and tape, her recent works have engaged with skepticism and belief in the effects of sound on the body: The Tuning of the Elements (Renaissance Society of the University of Chicago), Huizkol (Lampo, Trouble in Mind), and Fundamental 256 Hz (Longform Editions). For her 2022 LP Sonescent (Drag City) she collaborated with video artist Jodie Mack. She received her doctorate in the sociology of sound from the University of Chicago in 2018 and completed a postdoctoral research fellowship on sound and technology in the Centre for Gender Research at Uppsala University in Sweden in 2022. ⟴
